Jewelry Care & Quality

Saint Medals and Charms
---
The saint medals are either oxidized metal or silver plated. These medals can get discolored but can be cleaned. A cleaning cloth is sent along to help make that process easier. If they look a bit dingy rub the dry cloth over them. Major cleanings can be done with lemon juice and baking soda.

Silver Tone Charms
---
The silver tone charms (flowers/hearts/animals/etc) will tarnish over time. These are lesser quality than the Oxidized Saint Medals & Charms. Dry cleanings (when needed) can sometimes prolong their silver color.

Stainless Steel Necklaces & Bracelets
---
SS items are strong for their size & will not tarnish. Dry cloth (included) cleanings are great! Lemon juice & baking soda cleanings can also help!

Jump Rings: Quality & Strength

All our jump rings are a shiny stainless steel! The don't change color or tarnish!

We try to use the strongest jump rings which the chain or charm will allow. That way you are less likely to lose your jewelry.

It's super frustrating when you lose a bracelet, necklace, or charm due to a weak jump ring! We try to use the strongest jump ring that the situation will allow. (Ex. Bigger hole = thicker jump ring!)

Age Appropriate: Please Use Caution

All of our jewelry is intended for adults, teens, and children ages 7 years and up.

**We do not recommend these be worn by babies or toddlers ages 3 and under. They are made from small parts that may cause choking.*** Please keep your babies and children safe!**

NOTE: Chewing on jewelry is ALWAYS a choking hazard.

If you purchase a necklace for a child (7&up), remember to look for the strongest chains - see our "Chain: Quality & Strength" question. Children often break the thin chains. NOTE: No chain is 100% safe from breakage - Always use caution.

Our glass lockets have REAL glass and can be broken. These are not recommended for young children or toddlers. If worn (by those age 7 and up) please wear them in appropriate safe settings.
